These is a sample message you could use to send to a member of your group.  Please have a look at [[Best_Practice_Notes#Wantedposts_are_a_good_thing]] and try to avoid sending back any wanted or requests unless you are totally overwhelmed!


Dear Member
We are sorry to have to return your post but our group has a limit on the number of wanted items per month/week that can be requested.
The limit is [X] posts per month/week each containing not more than [X] requests for items.
As you have already reached this number I have returned your message.  You may of course resubmit your request again on the [DATE]
Our group has agreed this limit in order to balance out the offers and requests and to prevent members leaving because they feel they are being taken advantage of.
Kind regards

Please can you wait until X days have passed since your last request and post this again?
Please can you wait until X days have passed since your last request and post this again?


Hope that is OK!
Our experience is that you are more likely to get a better response to your requests if there aren't a lot all at once, so hopefully you will be able to find the items you want over an extended period.
 
Hope that is OK, and good luck!

Hi there

I am sorry to return your message but we have a group rule of X wanted messages per X . Please can you wait until X days have passed since your last request and post this again?

Our experience is that you are more likely to get a better response to your requests if there aren't a lot all at once, so hopefully you will be able to find the items you want over an extended period.

Hope that is OK, and good luck!

Best wishes
